mounting to shop floor
although not required, we recommend that you
mount the cabinet to the floor. Because this is
an optional step and floor materials may vary,
mounting hardware is not included. to mount the
machine to the floor, it is necessary to remove the
pre-installed leveling feet, then level the cabinet
with shims and the use of a precision level.
lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor
studs (

NOTICE
anchor studs are stronger and more per-
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;
however, they will stick out of the floor,
which may cause a tripping hazard if you
decide to move your machine.
NOTICE
We strongly recommend securing your
machine to the floor if it is hardwired to the
power source. consult with your electrician
to ensure compliance with local codes.
